This is too funny. A construction worker accidentally cut off his hand with a power saw. It hurt so much, he wanted to commit suicide. The only thing he had handy was a nail gun, so he shot himself in the head a dozen times with it. He survived, though.

You know, this isn't the first time I've heard of somebody unsuccessfully trying to commit suicide by shooting themselves in the head with a nail gun. It never seems to work. I assume it would, if they hit the right places, but they're hard to reach.

Could you imagine what must have gone through the head (no pun intended) of the guy who found him. He must have been quite a sight.

The problem with the nail gun is, that the nails will never go through the head. It's not a proper gun.

Speaking of Darwin Awards, this is one of my favourite urban legends:
